NEW YORK - December 13, 2005 - The entire season and one big decision has come down to this night--"The Apprentice" live finale, Thursday, December 15 from 9-11pm ET. The two-hour finale will be broadcast live at Lincoln Center and will feature the conclusion of the final two tasks-- managing the Outback Steakhouse VIP Softball Challenge (led by Randal) and running the Yahoo!All-Star Comedy Benefit (led by Rebecca), as well as a cast reunion and ultimately the live boardroom hiring.

Trump's newest employee will receive a $250,000 'apprenticeship' and join the ranks of the three previous winners-Bill Rancic, Kelly Perdew and Kendra Todd. It's a race to the finish and the final boardroom.
